Insulating and boarding in Irlam
With 50% of households in semis, we often find boards nailed straight to the joists with thin, squashed insulation underneath.
About a quarter of homes here are terraces (26%). Older ones may have roofs without felt, which makes airflow at the eaves important.
On the visit we note whether the old insulation is dry and clean, whether the roof is trussed or traditional and where the tank and pipes sit. It takes well under an hour.
